On #MayDay, we celebrate the power we have when we join together in union. We are fighting for a future where billionaires pay what they owe through taxes and wages. Everyone should have the freedom to negotiate a fair return on their work — no exceptions.

Earlier this month, Chicagoans across races, faiths and genders rallied at Amazon’s office to demand that the tech giant pay what it owes. The messaging is on point 🎯 highlighting how corporations try to divide us while stealing everything we've built to care for each other.

These fantastic graphics from Tường Vy make it clear that our communities' heartbeat is more important than a data center's hum. Together we must fight for our freedom to have safe water to drink, clean air to breathe & healthy communities to call home. Credit: @CJAOurPower

On #EarthDay and every day, we must make sure that all of our families have the freedom to drink clean water, breathe safe air, and live in healthy communities — no matter what we look like or where we come from.

We’re kicking off #EarthWeek with a simple truth: our community’s heartbeat matters more than a data center’s hum. We need investments in health, schools, clean energy, & good jobs—not projects that bring crisis and chaos. Raise your voice and #DitchTheDataCenters

The #BraveOfUs move to make a better life and build a better future together. The Brave of Us will always choose love and support for our neighbors over the division peddled by this cowardly regime and their billionaire bullies. Credit: @favianna @NEAToday

This #TaxDay, here's your reminder that taxes shouldn't be seen as punishment. Taxes fund our schools, health care and everything else that we've built to care for each other. Billionaires must pay what they owe in taxes AND wages, so that all of us have the freedom to thrive.

Trump just signed the first ever federal voucher program into the law. This program will funnel public funds to private schools for the wealthy, even in states that rejected school privatization. For #MessagingMonday, we offer an alternative narrative to help you fight back.

We need to make it clear that corporations must pay what they owe in taxes and also in wages. Check out the "Fund Our Future" toolkit today for more tips to win the narrative on funding the care, support, and services our families need: wemakethefutureaction.us/resources-docu…

Last year, we highlighted how WNBA players were wearing t-shirts demanding that the league "pay us what you owe us." This year, thanks to the hard work of players to organize and demand change through their union, the WNBA is raising the league minimum salary by over $200,000.

We love this quote from Ms. Rachel. She is making it clear that every child is worthy of love and care, no matter where we come from or what we look like.

Millions of people across colors, faiths, and origins marched in record numbers in defiance of the MAGA regime. #NoKings The regime is attempting to turn our government into a weapon against our people, but the #BraveOfUS see through their lies and will protect our communities.

All of us–Black, white or brown, Native or newcomer, transgender or not–deserve to shine bright as our true selves, without being forced to dim our light. Together we must light the way to a better future, where all of us are free to be ourselves & thrive. #transdayofvisibility
